Tho Attitude Of Rome Towards tho knights Of
Labor.

Bishop Ireland Of St. Paul, in an inter
view with IL New York Tribune Reporter
said: 1T is decided in Rome that the
Knights OF Labor are not to be condemned
and all censures against them, such az
those formerly existing in Canada, have
been withdrawn: But this is negative
No positive approval was asked for or will
be given, and OF course, shonld the knights
in future do anything as a society contrary
to the rule OF natural justice or the law
of the church, they will be liable to con.
demnation. So far there has been no cause
Tor condemnation. Furthermore. the
church implicitly recognizes the right OF the
laboring classes to organize for the legit.
innate protection OF their rights.'

Slowly indeed. but with great exer.

in perspiration, they succeeded. First
Bays harness was cut and he was put
close to the wounded man, and then
the father was helped on the horse.
One moment Max thought he should
first fetch his mother; but then he
was afraid to leave his father among
the dead on the battlefield. where the
fight might perhaps be renewed on the
morrow. At last he had his father
safely on the back of the horse, and
Max held the bride. Gently, quite
gently they went, step by step, away
from the forest, out on the meadows,
toward the village. At first the moon
and stars lighted up their way; then
they grew paler and in the east the
sky began to redden.
"Now We are soon with mother"
said Max, and looked anxiously into
tho pale, tired face of his father. Now
they could look up tho village street,
and now they could SEQ their own

stood mother-and now-now she had

the father used to sit at this time OF

wife bout the joys and cares of the

he will ever sit there again? the good

bent head; the moon shone upon her
pale, carewOrn face.
Suddenly she looked up. What was
it? A noise in the street-a gentle,
light step; for one second she could
hear it, and then all was quiet again.
Was somebody stealing around the
house? Was All enemy near? The
woman jumped up and listened; acold
draught passed over her; it came from
the chamber. Was the window open
there?-she had cl osed it herself--she
knew that for certain. Had some
body opened or forced it inland

With loudly beating heart she went
into the chamber. Yes, the window

Story of Washington Society.

There is secret in Washington involving
the name of senator's wife of whom the fol-
lowing is told, as having occurred recently:
The senator's wife in her round of visits
called on a lady whose marriage within a
year was one of the events talked of in official
society, on account of the high official posi-
ton of her husband. The senator's wife, as
the story goes, called on the lady's "day," and
was received with much cordial politeness, as
were all callers In little pause after the
first salutation, the senator's wife said, is il
true, Mrs Blank, that you were a clerk in
one of the departments before your first mar.
rage; and did your mother keep boarding
house2'
The hostess proved equal to the unexpected
assault, as she also proved herself woman Of
good breeding-which cannot be said of her
visitor.
"Yes,r she replied, with perfect dignity and
good temper, lit is true that / was clerk in
one Of the departments before my first mar
riage. But my mother did not keep board
ing house. If she had l should have had a
home and there would have been no neces-
sity for me to be a clerk, you know"
The name of the senator's wife is the secret
society people are just now trying to find
out The name of the woman who made the
womanly answer is known and she is COM
mended on all hands for courage and good
sense She is likely to be liked for herself
rather than for the social position given by
her husbands promiDence-Wa shington

NEVER TO BE INTERVIEWED.

A Newspaper Correspondent Ordered to
Interview President Arthur.
'Interview the president as to the probable
ity of an extra session, and reasons therefor.
Such was the arbitrary command tele-
graphed from the managing editor of one OF
the leading newspapers Of the country. The
CORRESPONDENT who received the senseleSS
command simply answered:
"President refuses to be interviewed on any
subject"
And the managing editor, thinking that he
knew more about it than his correspondent,
wanted to know il the latter had attempted
to get a hearing, and entered into a contro-
versy of some length about it.
When the celebrated Nutt-Dukes murder
trial was terminated at Pittsburg few years
ago and Mutt was acquitted a prominent
Pennsylvania newspaper management, be-
leving that the city Of Washington was
absorbed with the trial, telegraphed its rep
resentatives there:
@Interview President Arthur, his cabinet
and the principal diplomatists of Washington
about termination of Mutt trial.
The correspondent was stunned for few
seconds He hardly knew whether to accept
the contents of the dispatches as the work OF
punster about the office, or one of the arbl-
traly and senseless freaks OF an editor. Re
Election convinced him that the demand was
giyen in sober earnestness. The absurdity OF
it was apparent at glance. Neither the
president nor members of the cabinet would
express an opinion on the verdict of the jury,
even though they had kept trace of the trial
sufficiently close to do so intelligently and
Justly. The diplomatists knew nothing about
the matter, and, if they did, would scrupu-
lously refrain from making any comments,
because the juries in the countries outside of
this settle questions and the public swallow
the result unmurmuringly.
Presidents Of the United States never suffer
themselves to be interviewed for publication
upon any subject. The memory of the present
generation of correspondents does not run
back to the time when a president has author
lied person to quote him in the prints, or
even talk for general information for the
press. Occasionally cabinet officer is inter
viewed, but almost invariably it is upon per-
sonal matters as it is considered undiplomatic
to be interviewed on impersonal matters, or
in reference to subjects for official action.
Frequently there are interviews published and
credited to the president, but they are bogus.
The only way in which the president can be
quoted on current matters is through the
third person. Washington Cor indianapolis

Spanish Private Postal Service.

The bankers and merchants of Barcelona
and Madrid propose to start a private postal
service, paying the government the postage
on the letters carried. The reason given for
this curious proposal is that robberies in the
Spanish postoflices are SO frequent that it is
unsafe to transmit money through the post.
In short, it is stated that the Spanish post
office is in terrible state of disorganization,
and it is surprising that this state of things
should have been ignored by successive min
istries, all apparently solicitous to promote
the industrial needs of the country. The
civil departments of the Spanish administra-
ton, like the military departments, are over
burdened with employees receiving very small
salaries, and who are therefore not beyond
the reach of tenptation.-Bo Transcript
